Who Are The Most Powerful Women In Mobile Advertising?

T-Mobile's Carly Foulkes: surely NOT the
most influential woman in mobile advertising.

In Business Insider's recent ranking of the most important people
in mobile advertising, the
Mobile Power List 2012, we noted one depressing
anomaly: All the prominent executives on the list are men.

Since publishing the list, we've received a LOT of feedback about
the lack of female talent named on it, both in the comments and
in emails from readers.

So let's put this right.

We'd like to know who you think the most important women in the
mobile advertising business are. To nominate an executive, first
look at
the methodology we use to assess an executive's influence in
the business. Then:

You can nominate executives in the ad agency business, from
ad sales businesses, from networks and exchanges, and from device
companies -- as long as mobile ads are the core of their job.

If you are nominating a woman from your own company, we ask
you to ALSO nominate two other executives from different or
competing companies, to ensure that your nominations aren't
self-serving and to make sure our list isn't too fluffy. Those
last two nominations will be treated in confidence -- no one will
know who you named from other companies.

Then send an email to jedwards@businessinsider.com or
lstampler@businessinsider.com explaining why you believe the
executive should be on the list. Consider her achievements, the
size of the business she runs, and consider how closely watched
she is by executives at competing companies.

Lastly, if you have a nice big photo of the executive, please
attach that to your email along with photo credit information and
confirmation that we can publish it should the executive make the
list.

We'll combine all your nominations with our own research and
contacts in the mobile ad industry, and when we feel our data is
sufficiently complete, we'll publish a ranking of the most
powerful women in mobile advertising.
